Information Communication
Notes:
We must be able to share information in a manner that is understandable by the technical and non-technical audiences. The technical audience includes the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, EPA Region III, and the current property owner, and the non-technical audience includes the Marcus Hook community. The spatial analysis and visualization capabilities of GIS allow for an effective means of communication, and the underlying information communication goal has been incorporated in the development of the GIS facility description. About two months ago, we sent a first installment CD-ROM to PADEP and EPA Region III documenting our progress on this project. It included the digital facility description along with documentation on the information compiled and how they can use this information. Then three weeks ago, we held a CD-ROM workshop and training session in Pennsylvania.
